Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of microscopy, and more particularly to a naked-eye 3D surgical microscope with surgical navigation function. Background Technology

[0002] Surgical microscopes are primarily used in teaching experiments for anatomy, suturing of microvessels and nerves, and other delicate surgeries or examinations requiring the aid of a microscope. Surgical microscope video recording systems, also known as camera systems, high-definition image display systems, or digital surgical image management systems, are designed by medical institutions to preserve video recordings of surgical procedures, facilitating the review and archiving of past cases. A surgical microscope consists of two small objective-type monocular and binocular surgical microscopes, allowing two people to simultaneously observe the same target. Its small size, light weight, stable mounting, and easy mobility allow for movement, adjustment, and fixation in various directions as needed by medical personnel. The dual cold light source can be easily switched between different applications.

[0003] Existing naked-eye 3D surgical microscopes with surgical navigation functions may fail to observe lesions during surgery due to factors such as obstruction, small aperture, or liquid reflection. In such cases, other devices, such as X-rays, CT images, and root canal length measuring instruments, may be used to assist the surgery. However, this requires stopping the surgery to change equipment, which greatly affects efficiency and may also reduce surgical precision due to switching between devices. Summary of the Invention

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of the invention.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] Please see Figure 1The present invention proposes a naked-eye 3D surgical microscope with surgical navigation function, comprising a microscope body 1. A first high-definition cable 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the microscope body 1, and a display component 3 is fixedly connected to one end of the first high-definition cable 2. A second high-definition cable 4 is fixedly connected to the surface of the display component 3, and a surgical operating handle 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the second high-definition cable 4. A miniature camera 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the surgical operating handle 5. The display component 3 includes a telescopic bracket 31, and a display screen 32 is rotatably connected to the top of the telescopic bracket 31. An adjustment button 33 is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the display screen 32. The microscope body 1 includes a base 11, a support rod 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 11, and a caster wheel 13 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the base 11. A fixing seat 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 12, and the top of the fixing seat 14 is rotatably connected to the base 11. A rotating base 15 is movably connected, and a microscope assembly 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating base 15. This invention, through the microscope body 1, first high-definition cable 2, display assembly 3, second high-definition cable 4, surgical operating handle 5, miniature camera 6, telescopic support 31, display screen 32, adjustment button 33, base 11, support rod 12, caster wheel 13, fixed base 14, rotating base 15, and microscope assembly 16, can perform image recognition using images captured by the miniature camera 6 on the surgical operating handle 5. While displaying the image on the display screen 32, it also displays the distance to the target lesion and displays an alarm message when the lesion crosses the boundary. Image information is captured by the microscope body 1 and the miniature camera 6, and then transmitted to the display screen 32 in the display assembly 3 via the first high-definition cable 2 and the second high-definition cable 4, respectively, thus making surgical operations more convenient for doctors.

[0024] Workflow: Unlike traditional microscopes, the naked-eye 3D surgical microscope does not require viewing through the eyepiece tube. Instead, it displays images through the display screen 32 in the display component 3. Thus, by simply adding an image interface, images from another device can also be input to the screen. Through picture-in-picture or split-screen display, the microscope image and other diagnostic equipment can be displayed on the same screen, thereby realizing the surgical navigation function. By using the adjustment button 33, the images on the display screen 32 can be switched to display (1) a single microscope image; (2) a single input image; (3) a microscope image + input image (left and right split screen); (4) a microscope image + input image (up and down split screen); (5) a microscope image + input image (picture-in-picture). During the surgery, a ruler can be attached to the teeth. Images captured by the miniature camera 6 on the surgical handle 5 are used for image recognition. The image is displayed on the screen 32, showing the distance to the target lesion and displaying an alarm message when the lesion is crossed. The microscope body 1 and the miniature camera 6 capture image information, which is then transmitted to the screen 32 in the display component 3 via the first high-definition cable 2 and the second high-definition cable 4, respectively. This makes it easier for doctors to perform surgical operations on patients. The microscope body 1 can be moved by the casters 13 for convenience and speed. The fixed base 14 is fixed by the support rod 12, and the position of the microscope component 16 at the bottom of the rotating base 15 can be adjusted by rotating the rotating base 15 to achieve a suitable angle.

[0025] Example 2

[0026] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As an improvement to the above solution, the microscope assembly 16 includes a telescopic rod 161, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating base 15. A microscope body 162 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the telescopic rod 161. A disassembly / assembly mechanism 163 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the microscope body 162. A lens group 164 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the disassembly / assembly mechanism 163. An adjustment handle 165 is rotatably connected to one side of the microscope body 162, and a knob 166 is rotatably connected to the front of the microscope body 162. This invention utilizes the telescopic rod 161, microscope body 162, disassembly / assembly mechanism 163, mounting shell 1631, mounting plate 1632, through hole 1633, and slot 163 in the microscope assembly 16. 4. The components 1635 (clamping post), 1636 (clamping plate), 1637 (insertion mechanism), 16371 (fixing cylinder), 16372 (slider), 16373 (push rod), 16374 (clamping ball), 16375 (magnet), 16376 (clamping groove), 16377 (first magnet), 16378 (second magnet), 1638 (insertion hole), 164 (lens assembly), 165 (adjustment handle), and 166 (knob) can disengage the sliders 16372 on both sides to disassemble the mounting plate 1632 from the mounting shell 1631. This allows for convenient and quick assembly and disassembly of the lens assembly 164, reducing replacement time when the lens is blurred or damaged, and eliminating the need to replace the entire device, thus saving medical costs.

[0027] As an improvement to the above solution, the disassembly and assembly mechanism 163 includes a mounting shell 1631 and a mounting plate 1632. The mounting shell 1631 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lens body 162, and the mounting plate 1632 is fixedly connected to the top of the lens group 164. A through hole 1633 is provided at the bottom of the mounting shell 1631. A slot 1634 is fixedly connected inside the mounting shell 1631. A retaining post 1635 is elastically connected to both sides inside the mounting shell 1631, and a retaining plate 1636 is fixedly connected to one side of the retaining post 1635.

[0028] As an improvement to the above solution, the housing 1631 is internally fixedly connected to a plug-in mechanism 1637, and the plug-in mechanism 1637 is located on the top of the abutment plate 1636. The surface of the mounting plate 1632 is provided with a plug hole 1638.

[0029] As an improvement to the above solution, the insertion mechanism 1637 includes two fixed cylinders 16371, and a slider 16372 is slidably connected inside the two fixed cylinders 16371. A push rod 16373 is fixedly connected to one side of the slider 16372.

[0030] As an improvement to the above solution, one of the sliders 16372 has a snap-fit ​​ball 16374 fixedly connected to one side, and a connecting block is fixedly connected to one side of the slider 16372, with the connecting block located on both sides of the snap-fit ​​ball 16374. A magnet 16375 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting block, and a snap-fit ​​groove 16376 is formed inside the insertion hole 1638. The other slider 16372 has a fixing ring fixedly connected to its surface, with a first magnet 16377 fixedly connected to one side of the inside of the fixing ring, and a second magnet 16378 fixedly connected to the other side of the inside of the fixing ring. The first magnet 16377 and the second magnet 16378 have opposite magnetic properties.

[0031] Workflow: Before using the microscope, the telescopic rod 161 is adjusted via the adjusting handle 165, thereby adjusting the height of the microscope body 162. The light-gathering area of ​​the lens group 164 can be adjusted by turning the knob 166. Adjusting the brightness appropriately helps doctors observe the patient's lesions. The lens group 164 can be easily and quickly replaced using the disassembly mechanism 163. This reduces replacement time when the lenses are blurry or damaged, and eliminates the need to replace the entire device, saving medical costs. When installing the lens assembly 164, the mounting plate 1632 is inserted into the slot 1634 inside the mounting housing 1631 through the through hole 1633. Inserting the mounting plate 1632 into the slot 1634 positions the insertion hole 1638, ensuring it is flush with the insertion mechanism 1637. The mounting plate 1632 is then pressed against the abutment plate 1636 on one side of the abutment post 1635, providing a secure clamping effect. The insertion mechanism 1637 then secures the lens assembly 164. The plate 1632 is fixed to the mounting shell 1631 for a secondary fixation. When the insertion mechanism 1637 is inserted, the push rod 16373 is pushed to make the slider 16372 move inside the fixed cylinder 16371 toward the insertion hole 1638 until the snap-fit ​​ball 16374 on one of the sliders 16372 moves to the snap-fit ​​groove 16376 and snaps into it. The slider 16372 on the other side is slid so that the first magnet 16377 on the slider 16372 is connected to the magnet 16375 with opposite magnetism. The two sides attract each other, thus fixing the mounting plate 1632 and the mounting shell 1631. During disassembly, by rotating the push rod 16373, the push rod 16373 drives the slider 16372 and the magnetic block 16375 to rotate until the magnetic block 16375 moves to the position of the second magnet 16378 and repels it, thereby separating the sliders 16372 on both sides and achieving the purpose of disassembling the mounting plate 1632 and the mounting shell 1631. This allows for convenient and quick assembly and disassembly of the lens assembly 164.

[0032] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of the invention and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention should be included within the protection scope of the invention. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
